Okay, I have a train to catch - I better run! Enjoy your Friday and the coming weekend - I'll be up at the Engage conference in the Blue Mountains so I might see some of you there. Thank you to this beautiful family for giving me an afternoon of smiles which I hope will make you smile for many more years to come. Thanks for letting me capture these memories with you...these little ones always grow up way too quick!!

Themed "Waiting For The World To Change", this years RICE Rally 08 was held at the Sydney Entertainment Centre to cater for over 4000 attendees from 40+ different churches throughout Sydney who came together to hear God's Word with Mark Driscoll, all the way from Seattle! The night was amazingly powerful and so much fun, full of praise and worship, and a challenge to consider the amazing love of Christ demonstrated by his crucifixion on the cross.

If there's something indisputably beautiful about Australia, it's definitely our gorgeous sparkling blue waters. I'm still not quite sure why water is so blue, but it was heaps of fun enjoying it with Anna and Clem on this shoot...hope your socks dried out okay!!

This place was special to them, where they'd often sit in in the comfort of each other's company listening to the sound of waves crash against the rocks....

Sorry for the slowdown in blogposts, I've been meaning to post these pics up for a while but the Olympics and a achey drag of a cold means I'm behind on a few things. Finally succumbed to my husband telling me to take a Codral (how could I resist after I woke up and found the kitchen in an unimaginable state of Clean!), so it better work its magic. Anyways, back to the photos!



I totally love the relaxed, I'm-on-holiday feel of this portrait set, of a lovely couple who tied the knot six months ago. And have I told you I'm a huge fan of long willowy grass?

Paul spotted a boat all on its lonesome and jokingly made a passing remark about jumping in it, and then looked like he wished he could take back his words when I went to see if I could find it's owners for permission. Haha! It was so much fun to use!

So gorgeous.

Felt like playing around with an 'old holiday photograph' feel with the next couple of shots, I quite like these!

Tatts and painted nails. Love the detail and the grunge-pretty feel of this shot.

And a few more cuddles for good measure!
